The Poeta Project is a collaboration between Karen Eckert as the poet and 16 established visual artists from New York, New Jersey, and Ohio. Together they created a unique experience where they traded works and used those works as inspiration for new pieces. Each art and poetry pairing are documented here along with the journey Eckert went through. The Poeta Project is about inspiration, creativity, collaboration, and perseverance. It is about seeing and feeling poetry and art through a different lens and pushing through when our muse fights us.
